Active window changes after Regen / Print

Has anyone else notice or have it happen where you do a regen (Ctrl-G) and then mouse click "Automatic" that when this command is done, it does not return an active status to the last window in Creo that you just regen'd. Sometimes it is even a different software that is now the active article on the desk top.

 

I have also found this to happen after printing a drawing. I go to run a mapkey, but the window that I just printed is not the active window. Again sometime is not even the Creo program that is the active software but Chrome or something else.

 

I find that I have to mouse click on the window to activate before continuing.

After a reboot over the weekend this quirk has vanished. It must have been a windows quirk. I'll post more if it happens again, but for now I'll consider it solved.

I just used the "bottom" view icon and then "Ctrl-P" to print and a Chrome tab print menu popped up not the Creo 4 print menu. This is really weird.
